BrickNerd LiveBuild - Batman Movie Clayface Splat Attack

Batman has many enemies, but none are quite so unusual as Clayface. I mean, how do you fight a guy made of clay? Well, come to think of it, bringing some water, a throwing wheel and a little patience might be an approach, but I digress.

Join me and Mrs BrickNerd as we build 70904 LEGO Batman Movie Clayface Splat Attack live! Building starts at 9am PST!

1,000,000 Views!

I'm having a hard time believing it, but sometime between yesterday and today BrickNerdTV, the official YouTube channel of BrickNerd.com passed one million views! When I launched the website and the accompanying YouTube channel just over three years ago, crossing this threshold was not even a notion that crossed my mind. In those days I shot in my garage, and had to setup and strike in one day so my wife could park her car when she got home. Now I write this sitting in the studio that has continued to grow for over two years since I moved in. Thank you, thank you, thank you to all that watched, commented (well, some of you :-) and shared. I'm looking forward to making some more silliness to share with you, and I can't wait to celebrate the next landmark, whatever it is. I love you all!

BrickNerd LiveBuild - Disney Castle - Part 2

It's time for another round of Disney magic! Yesterday we started building the Disney Castle, and over the course of about 5 hours we managed to get just over half way done. It's a magnificent set, full of wonderful details and interesting techniques.

Join us today as we finish it. Building starts at 9am PST, see you then!

BrickNerd LiveBuild - Disney Castle - Part 1

We're huge Disney fans at our house. We go to Disneyland several times a year, we're Disney Vacation Club owners and we can't get enough of Begal BBQ and Dole Whips. Obviously we're also huge fans of LEGO (duh) so when those worlds collide you can bet we get excited. Join me and Mrs BrickNerd live for the next two days starting 9am PST as we build the new Disney Castle. It's going to be a magical time!

BrickNerd LiveBuild - Volkswagen Beetle

VW has been an important part of my life. The first family car I remember was a beetle, my first car was a beetle and I drive a beetle now. So to say I'm excited about this set is a bit of an understatement. I know this is last minute and I'm sorry I didn't announce it yesterday, but I can't wait to build this little beauty.

Join me live at 2pm PST as I build the amazing new LEGO 10252 Volkswagen Beetle live!

BrickNerd LiveBuild - Mixels Series 8

Mixels series 8 is out and we've got the whole collection. Join me and Mrs. BrickNerd as we build the Medix, Pyrratz and MCFD live starting at 1pm PST. Grab the popcorn, make a sandwich, find a comfy place to sit and get ready for some riveting building. Will I say something stupid? (absolutely) will Dianna make a building mistake? (who knows) Will it be more entertaining than the last Fantastic 4 movie? (guaranteed)

Ghostbusters Headquarters - In Just Over A Minute

How do you make building one of the biggest LEGO sets ever produced even more epic? You  film it in multiple sessions with motion control time-lapse then composite all the shots with some cool speed effects and edit a video. This took over a week, but was super fun. The set is outstanding, with loads of detail and tons of nostalgia. One of my favorite all time movies is now one of my favorite all time sets.

Utter Silliness

When I started BrickNerd nearly three years ago a YouTube channel was part of the vision. I really had no idea what it was going to be, and decided I'd let it evolve naturally. Looking back I could not have predicted what a wacky and fun thing it was going to be. While cutting this new channel trailer I looked at a great deal of content from the channel, it was eye-opening and wonderful to relive the journey so far.  Looking forward I'm excited to see what mischief I get into next. Thanks to everyone who watches, you make it all worth it.

BrickNerd LiveBuild - Dr. Who

What could be more fun than watching two people build a LEGO Dr Who set live on the internet? Watching two people who haven't the first clue about Dr Who building a LEGO Dr Who set live on the internet, that's what! You've got nothing better to do, the Superbowl is hours and hours away. 

Join me and Mrs BrickNerd live at 10:30 am PST. Guaranteed 17% more exciting than opening bean dip.

BrickNerd LiveBuild - Poe's X-Wing Fighter

I can't believe Star Wars The Force Awakens is almost here! We're counting the hours and what better way to kill some time and have some fun than to build? So we're building Poe's X-Wing Fighter live! Join me and James Morr at 10am PST. It's way more interesting than sitting in line (which is where you'll find me tomorrow!)
